About this kit

5-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 35330 is a 5-inch lift kit for the 2000–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD. The kit pairs lifted diesel coil springs and lower control arm drop brackets up front with rear lift blocks, add-a-leafs, and a set of N3 shocks. It does not fit V8 gas engine trucks, dually axles, or third-generation new-body models, and the install calls for cutting and drilling.

This 5-inch lift kit for the 2000–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD raises the front on lifted coil springs with lower control arm drop brackets, a pitman arm, and track bar and sway-bar drop brackets; the rear uses fabricated 4-inch lift blocks, add-a-leafs, and U-bolts, with N3 shocks at all four corners. The bracketry bolts in, so no welding is needed, and factory steering geometry is retained. Trucks with factory overload springs need the overload taken off before the new block and U-bolt hardware goes on. Rough Country lists an install time of 8-10 hours, and a downloadable installation guide is available.
